A design charrette C o m mun i t y De si g n was held with stakeholders to give it a new identity based on its history of wellbeing to provide employment and regional economic regeneration. The key concept of this vision is to create a nationally significant health ‘nucleus’ underpinned by a new Institute of Life Sciences for Wales, comprising Bronllys Hospital site with existing and new services for Bronllys and Talgarth.

The vision for the siteis to transform the redundant land into ‘an exceptional off-grid eco-hamlet’,comprised of a small number of zero-carbon houses. It is intended to becomean exemplar project complete with a zero-carbon transport strategy

The brief gave reccommendations for the density and volume of development at site, while being respectful towards important sightlines and consistent urban form. One of the main objectives was to provide an iconic entrance to Cardiff

The objective was to identify the reasons behind the creation of traditional spaces and the methodology employed by individuals such as Krier to achieve this. Space Syntax analyses were used to determine the nature and scope of the impact of new development. The results indicate that although the project has an insufficient impact on the global urban form of the city centre, it positively influences activity and interaction along certain key routes and links

The Bull Ring/ Markets quarter was found to be disconnected from its neighbouring quarters and the city centre as well. Actions called for better pedestrian routes through the site leading toward the city centre, greater integration of green corridors and canal networks in3 4 a landscape strategy and improved public transport links. These were proposed in conjunction with a comprehensive mixed landuse strategy within the Irish quarter
